THE APRILIA RSV 4 “RACE MACHINE” IS UNVEILED FOR THE FIRST TIME

 

 

The Aprilia Superbike, the bike which from 2009 will bring the Noale based company back to four-stroke racing, has been unveiled for the first time during the Piaggio Group Convention in Milan.

 

After the success in the 2007 World Championships with Aprilia riders and bikes dominating the 125 and 250 classes (winning all four titles, a repeat of the 2006 performance), the Veneto company gave a preview of the eagerly awaited RSV 4 “Race Machine”.

 

An extraordinary preview to a privileged audience of more than 1,200 dealers attending the International Piaggio Group Convention.

 

Four cylinders, 1000 cc, power of well over 200 HP in the race version, the new bike due to make its road debut by the end of 2008 will mark Aprilia's return to the World Superbike Championship in the 2009 season.

 

 

The Aprilia RSV 4 is driven by the most revolutionary and powerful engine ever built by Aprilia. A four-cylinder one litre 65° V engine - a layout making it unique among all the world's production engines - in which the most sophisticated engine engineering is combined with top quality materials and the most advanced electronic control technology.

 

The Aprilia engine in fact uses integral ride-by-wire technology, opening up new frontiers in managing such a powerful engine, with almost infinite possibilities for controlling power output and traction.

[Refugee]

the RSV 1000 series.. (should be correct model... the twin milo kong exhaust..) is the predecessor?

[DeusExMachina]

Come to think of it. It does resemble the Suzuki K5 somewhat.

 

But this baby has sharper lines and looks more aggressive of course.

This bike? Nope. Not out yet right?

 

But I've heard the K5 and the RSV1000. Diff la. One is IL4, the other V2.

 

This new RSV is a V4. Different animal altogether.

This bike is tune for MotoGP not for commercial ride.

 

Street Bikes will only be produce end of 2008.

 

Standard version will be under 19000 euros. The Factory version will be full of specials around 25000 euros. 170bhp and reallly light. I guess we have to wait until the end of the year

Speculated Outlook:

This is a photochop of what PB thought would be a roadgoing version of their MotoGP bike.... the RS Cube.

Have you heard the bike Roar ??

 

Wow, I can never forget that familiar sound. It was back in 2006 in Sepang, MotoGP race day, the race has been flagged off, and the mechs were warming up the backup bikes. This is the same sound.
